    In other news, yesterday I started a course about SQL design and optimisation.  And managed to turn up to the wrong training venue.  Fortunately it was the right training provider, and I had half an hour to get from Clerkenwell to Bank via bicycle.  They did try giving me just a mini-map of the area between Bank and Monument Tube, but I pointed out that it was very little help if I had No Clue how to get from Clerkenwell to Bank, so I directed them round TFL and they printed a route off for me.  The guy on reception had the most appalling halitosis: not a good move if you're the face of your company.

    Mind you, given that I spent Sunday very, very hungover indeed: never been ill the morning after the night before in my life, it's quite impressive that I ended up at approximately the right place at approximately the right time.  It could have been Much Worse.  The Annual Rugby Club dinner on Saturday night had some of the roughest red wine that I've ever encountered, and my system didn't like it at all.... I feel rather sheepish.  At my great age, you'd think I'd realise that 3 glasses are quite enough if the wine is rough.  There were highlights.  The George-Clooney-Alike did a topless Haka, and. Well, actually that was the highlight.  He's dishy he is.  Definitely dishy. (can you say "Unrequited crush"?)

    So Sunday was a write off, last night I failed to get through all my to-do list: and tonight I'm going to yoga.
